Thanks for the answer. I read about your problems with the pano roof. I did not get if they managed to fix it or you still have leaks. I think I'll leave my order with the pano roof. The Kodiaq at the dealers had a sunroof and it looks stunning. I'll have 4 years of warranty if I'll get one leaky roof.

Can I ask what are those reasons? I just ordered a Kodiaq with a pano roof and I can still cancel it. Plus I have some doubts about this choice.

I bought the 757 and used my old square bars from the Golf mk5, Thule 769. For Octavia Estate Thule recommends 761 wich are 7 cm shorter but I managed to use the old bars by extending the ditch in a middle in one bar.

After a wash this weekend. I have the car since february. Sorry for the quality but I only had my phone with me. -
For me the start/stop works even with aircon on but the a/c stops functioning. The air that comes in is warmer and warmer. If I'm stopped for more than 20-30 seconds I feel there's no aircon. And also the fan is moved to the lower setting, one bar litten. After the engine is restarted the aircon come back on and the fan is set to the original power setting.

Amber warning alert on new vRS?
florino replied to CBT's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk III (2013 - 2020)
I saw this happening on another forum. After he changed the xenon control unit the DRL errors started to appear. When he took the car back the dealer told him the control unit has to be changed again. What was the diagnostic on your car? -
Anyone on here speak Czech?

I've contacted GLS through their local website. Probably that's why they don't have a phone number of their main site. Another problem with GLS is that it doesn't have a centralised database with their packages. I couldn't believe that. They're not like UPS or DHL. More like the postal office. To find out the address written on a package you have to talk to a guy that holds the package in front of him Meanwhile I opened a claim with paypal to get my money back from the hood dampers since superskoda doesn't answer. -
I'm highly sure of that, having owned a golf mk5. This is what happens and next time you see a golf 5, check out the front doors. And if you're still not sure just google "golf mk5 ice doors". There are many more pictures like these and posts on vw forums. golfmkv.com has plenty of them. VW even admitted to this problem and even issued a service bulletin on this. Whoever wanted and knew of this service info could take his golf, if it was still in warranty, and the service would mount some water stoppers in doors that would prevent water retention at the front of the door. But although they admitted this problem, they did not change the production line. Golf 5 were all produced without those additional water stoppers.

Water retention in the door sills is not normal. Golf 5 had a similar problem. And in winter when that water froze, the door would bent when you tried to open it.

Call to correct your address. Don't leave it like this for too long or they will send it back. -

They don't give you the tracking number by email. You have to go to your account -> your orders. You see a table with all your orders and on the end of each row you have the tracking number. It's the long one starting with 9.
